22M.1A.SL.TZ2.6
An object of mass 2.0 kg rests on a rough surface. A person pushes the object in a straight line with a force of 10 N through a distance d.
The resultant force acting on the object throughout d is 6.0 N.
What is the value of the sliding coefficient of friction between the surface and the object and what is the acceleration a of the object?

Examiners report
There is no evidence that candidates were disadvantaged by the use of sliding friction rather than dynamic friction with the correct option being the most popular.
